compositing with alpha layer
Apr 23 2006 | 3:02 pm
Hi!
i want to arrange a simple compositing of a background movie with an foreground movie which includes an alpha layer...
i tried jit.alphablend but the objects of the foreground movie are becoming all transparent.
i also thought about a jit.chromakey and "key" the alpha channel...
also the jit.op object didn?t work for me...
so you see i have no clue anymore...
cheers

- Apr 23 2006 | 3:07 pmjit.alphablend does exactly what you are saying you want. perhaps you can explain it a little clearer?
